Adaptive maximum SINR RAKE filtering for DS-CDMA multipath fading channels.

The conventional signature-matched RAKE processor for multipath direct-sequence code division multiple access channels is viewed as a regular linear tap-weight filter of length equal to the sum of the system processing gain and the user channel memory. In this paper, performance improvements are sou...
